Christmas always has a funny way of sneaking up on me. This year was no exception. My graduate classes ended, my job as a substitute teacher took off, and chaos ensued. Despite all the craziness there was a little room for some DIY, my favorite. This time it came in the form of wrapping paper. I love trying different things when I wrap presents and this year I wanted to do it thrifty and fun. My inspiration came from a weekly classified that we get in the mail every week. Though nothing new under the sun, I figured I would wrap presents in newspaper and add a little flair. All it took was a couple snips of paper and some cascading fringe bows to add to the final touch. Cheap, easy, and you'll probably make everyone grin when you walk through the door. Sounds like a perfect way to wrap a present to me :)
